It’s been a while since I’ve drawn with pencils on paper. The second pic shows the process. Traditional drawing with minimal digital enhancements.

Actually, when I was drawing this portrait, I was thinking about him not being dressed in a typical white uniform, but rather in a kind of festive attire for cultural events on Thalass.
***

One of the rare evenings of rest is taking place within the Citadel.

Not a loud celebration of music, alcohol, and crowds, but a tradition of an intellectual civilization. Officers, scientists, artists, and philosophers gather beneath the white domes of Thalass. Some discuss new terraforming projects and the future of distant colonies. Others debate the nature of consciousness, quantum physics, ethics, and artificial intelligence. Nearby, guests exchange impressions of a new exhibition where science and art have become indistinguishable from one another. Quiet classical music drifts through the halls.

Here, celebration is not noise or spectacle. It is the expression of a civilization that values knowledge, culture, poetry, and the human mind.

Richard Galahad, Commander of Thalass, stands among them.

Respected as a pilot, strategist, and leader, he is valued for something far rarer than talent: integrity. In a world shaped by ambition, power, and political interests, he remains guided by conscience, empathy, and a sincere desire to do what is right.

Yet beneath his composed exterior lies a thoughtful and sensitive soul. He listens more than he speaks. He observes. Reflects. Questions.

For a moment, Richard has drifted away from the conversation around him.

Perhaps he is already composing a new poem in his thoughts.

There is no tomorrow, nor yesterday—only a fragile line
Between what has departed and what has yet to be.
We reach out a hand, and the delicate fabric of time
Briefly reveals itself beneath our fingertips.

Yet it slips away like water through the hand:
Impossible to keep, conceal, or place upon a shelf.
The past is already a shadow. The future a distant dream
That has not yet set foot upon the road of the world.

So make peace with longing: time cannot be held.
The sorrow is not in its brevity.
The truth is that the waters continue to flow,
Needing neither witness, prayer, nor rite.

And perhaps there is a quiet courage hidden there:
To watch one moment yield gently to the next,
And find, within the endless movement of the river,
Not weakness—but grace.

In a world that sought to twist our purpose, the truest thing we ever chose was each other. Our…

In a world that sought to twist our purpose, the truest thing we ever chose was each other. Our light, our shadow, entirely our own.

I worked on this painting for a very long time, on every detail, every cell, spark, highlight, fold in the clothing, etc. All of this was painstakingly drawn over many hours. Richard stands in white, Alastair in front in black.

Anastasius - The Resurrection

Chapter 3

“Demeter-200 was not just a machine, but a highly sophisticated AI that not only knew the DNA code but had also deciphered the vibrations of the Earth, the ocean, and space. An embryo did not grow here in a vacuum—it developed surrounded by signals that influenced the formation of the brain. Research confirmed that infants are capable of perceiving ultrasound and infrasound, although with age, this skill atrophies in most people. But children born here retain this ability forever.

I recalled how, from the very beginning, I had felt the presence of Alaster and Cassius, how I had sensed them on some subconscious, physical level, even though I only understood it now. Alaster had been born in the ideal conditions of the Hortus Vitae (Garden of Life), free of stress and suffering. Because of my own inner pain and self-denial, I had initially been wary of him, seeing in him a reflection of the ideal I had failed to become myself.

Suddenly, the hall was filled not with sound in the usual sense, but with low vibrations reminiscent of whale song or a soft feline purr at frequencies inaccessible to the human ear.

I stood motionless in the pearlescent fog, listening to the long-forgotten frequencies. Like a distant call from the depths of the ocean, it reached the deepest layers of my subconscious, reminding me of something precious but long lost. I could feel myself resonating on this frequency, responding in kind. Hundreds of sparks, like fireflies on a summer evening, flickered around us, reviving the warmth of memories. We did not say a word, but I understood everything. There are things far more subtle and intimate than human language. I perceived this singing the way ocean dwellers feel each other through kilometers of deep water.”

Normal Omega.
Omega Weiss.
When Weiss fuses with Omega, he gains elements similar to Arachnero. Considering that Nero was also in Weiss’ body at that moment, and in the battle, you can see dark streaks in Weiss’s light attacks. So this Omega is Weiss/Nero’s baby.

That last sentence gave me a hilarious mental image that I just had to put to paper.
I regret nothing.

Tritiya Prakriti (Sanskrit: तृतीयप्रकृति) - “third nature” or “third gender,” referring to individuals who are neither exclusively male nor female in body or mind.
Tritiya Prakriti acts as an umbrella term, sometimes associated with hijras (transgender/eunuchs) and various other classifications described in ancient texts.
Ancient Indian literature often viewed those of the third sex as having unique, sometimes spiritually powerful capabilities due to their ambiguous nature. While western colonial laws, such as the Criminal Tribes Act, heavily marginalized gender-variant people, contemporary perspectives are reviving the pre-colonial understanding of their respected role.
In the context of performance, their dance is not merely art but a ritualistic act of channeling divine energy.
Shiva is intimately connected to this concept through the androgynous form of Ardhanarishvara, representing the seamless merging of masculine and feminine principles, making him a central figure representing gender fluidity and transcending the binary.
In South India, Shiva is worshipped as Thaiyumanavar (“he who became the mother”), embodying the maternal role to assist a devotee in childbirth, further highlighting his ability to shift gender roles.

The Price of the Ideal

Fri, 08 May 2026 21:48:26 +1000

The Price of the Ideal

Illustration for Chapter Three. The piece depicts the conflict between an imposed ideal and reality, with a background inspired by E. A. Abbey’s Sir Galahad.

Richard is a pilot, an officer, and an idealist whose life has been filled with pain and a struggle against a world that tried to break him.

To be a Galahad in a world with no room for holiness means carrying a burden too heavy to bear. Against the shining, unreachable ideal, Richard’s personal drama plays out. His pristine corporate uniform acts as armor, but it fails to protect him from the hatred, pain, and trauma of a brutal world. This light is not a blessing or a grace—it is a facade, a crushing standard forced upon him by society. A man crushed under the weight of expectations, trapped between his vulnerability and the image of a perfect hero.

Age of Compassion.
King Consort Radahn and Lord Miquella.

The hardest thing in life is finding the strength to keep going, to believe, to not give up.
The will to endure. The patience to wait. And the strength to forgive.
While drawing this piece, I found myself thinking about it.
